Each house needs to be protected from rains, snowfalls, winds. The roof is best coped with these functions. For the construction of a reliable roof, you should buy quality materials. The price should not be the main criterion, otherwise you will have to spend additional funds for repair work.
The roof design also includes waterproofing, insulation and supporting elements that can be made of stone or wood. There are simpler options, the advantage among which belongs to a flat roof. Its design consists only with the insulated overlap and roofing material. Very often this method of building a roof is used in the construction of multi -storey residential buildings and office buildings.
Other trends prevail in suburban construction. The main species are a roof with an attic or a attic version of a roof. Such structures make it possible to expand the operational area of the house. For the manufacture of supporting elements, mainly wood is used, since it is the most affordable material in our country.
Roofing work is highly difficult to execute, but if you wish and the availability of the necessary tools, you can independently build an attic roof on your own. First you need to cover the upper surface of the walls with a layer of roofing material, then fix the horizontal wooden beams of a square shape, which will become the basis of the rafters, supporting elements of the roof. The rafter system is strengthened with horizontal “puffs”, then it is covered with a waterproofing film, a non -combustible insulation. At the final stage, the structure is covered with a crate, given the properties of roofing material that will be used.
